168 days – A Miracle

On May 18th, our entire staff, driven by a common sense of calling, began to tackle that “impossible task.”

Within days, the proposed amendment and petitions had been draw up, the Ohio Campaign to Protect Marriage had become a legal reality, and the drive to collect over 300,000 signatures in a matter of days had begun.

In exactly 68 days, the required signatures were delivered to Ohio’s Secretary of State Ken Blackwell.

And on November 4th, exactly 168 days past that fateful day in May, the people of Ohio said “Yes” to marriage.
